Why Choose RSI
Hands on Training
We at RSI believe that students can often learn more from working with their hands than reading a book and listening to a lecture. We also believe that before a person can successfully work with his hands, he must know something about what he is attempting to do. Therefore we use a combination of the two to give attention to theory, basic principles, safety procedures, etc., and the "shop" time is used to apply this knowledge. The desired result is a graduate who understands how and why something works, and has enough practical hands-on training to use this understanding in analyzing and solving any problems presented.
E-STAR System
Trouble-shooting is essential for any technician to solve a problem, regardless of the job or industry. In fact, the best technicians are often the best troubleshooters. With the E-STAR system of troubleshooting, a student gets hands-on experience troubleshooting electrical problems. In an industry where 80% to 90% of all problems are electrical, it is easy to see how important this training can be!
